I feel like zip could return partial results:
try:
next(zip([0], []))
except StopIteration as exc:
assert StopIteration.args == (0,)
how much would this break?
It would break a lot of code, and so it won't happen.
Actually, I'm not so sure of that, presuming you mean "exc.args", not
"StopIteration.args". And since that's currently set to "()", at least
in my tests, maybe setting it wouldn't break much code. But it's
probably a non-zero amount.
You can use itertools.zip_longest with your own sentinel to get the
same behavior.
In your proposal, what would next(zip([0], [], [0])) result in?
This point still stands.
